The blade slid across his throat, and Delsho neatly killed the Noxian scout in front of him before he had time to express his fear, without letting him make any unnecessary noise.

In the whole air, there was only a faint sound of the blood rushing in the throat when the too-fast blade cut the throat, mixed with the surprise of those who had no time to shout, and combined with the whistling north wind, it made people feel like wind.

A sudden illusion.

Delxiu casually shook off the blood on the knife, gently placed the body in his hand on the ground, and began to bury it.

This was already the thirteenth scout he had killed. This number made him frown slightly, because meeting thirteen professional Noxian scouts in a row in just half a day was enough to illustrate a problem.

That is, they are very close to their destination this time. This is the best news, because this time they were originally going to break the Noxus fortress from the inside, although it was already late from the scheduled time.

It took a day, but there was still some hope.

However, Chen Senran disappeared. The commander-in-chief of this operation completely disappeared at dawn today.

No one knows when he left, including Lao Du.

"I can't wait any longer." Delxiu covered up the last handful of snow, patted the snow foam between his palms, stood up and looked at Lao Du who was silent at the side.

It was already noon, and the sunshine was rarely bright in the Freljord today. He had been waiting for Chen Senran all morning and killed thirteen scouts. Losing so many scouts in such a short period of time would definitely cause Nok to quickly

The vigilance of the Sass people means that they will be aware of it before dark at the very least.

So his time is running out, and nearly six hundred of his brothers are watching from behind.

So he had to take action, so he didn't wait any longer, so what he meant was, Lao Du, if you want to leave, leave first. After all, what follows will be a bloody battle destined to death, and Lao Du

He doesn't belong to any side, so he doesn't have to die with them for the glory of Demacia.

Lao Du glanced at Delxiu, but still said nothing. He slowly turned his body and looked at the snow behind him.

In this piece of snow, 593 Demacian warriors hid quietly in the deep snow without making any sound, as quiet as 593 wolves that were patiently hunting.

"I have always felt that the Demacians were too weak to be a match for the Noxians." Lao Du suddenly spoke and said some seemingly inexplicable words, "But you guys look good."

"Mr. Du..." Delxiu frowned, not knowing what the old man in front of him meant.

"Do you know what the last words Mengsk said before he died?" Lao Du turned his body again and looked at the snow-capped mountains in the distance. The long-lost sunshine shone on his weather-beaten face, plating it with...

A layer of mysterious golden light.

"General Mengsk?" When Delxiu said this name, his usually solemn face showed a rare hint of awe and respect.

Mengsk Crown Guard, one of the most outstanding figures in the Crown Guard family for hundreds of years, the number one man in Demacia’s military ten years ago, the star of Demacia, Galen’s uncle, the man Galen vowed to surpass,

Demacia's undefeated warrior god.

Mengsk went through a total of 136 battles, big and small, and lost only once in his life. That defeat was ten years ago, when he led the army to confront the Noxians on the banks of the Serpentine River, and finally lost to the Noxians at that time.

At the height of his power, the sword demon Duke Kao drew his sword and committed suicide.

What he said before he died...

"What did he say?" Delxiu took a deep breath and looked at Lao Du with a somewhat incomprehensible look.

"He said that for crimes other than war, God is going to kill me." Lao Du was in a daze, and he straightened up involuntarily. It seemed that the magnificent years in his words finally reminded him of some of himself back then.

, "I understand what he means. At that time, the Noxians were three thousand Noxian assassins, and he led less than eight thousand ordinary Demacia soldiers. He felt it was unfair. I despised him at the time.

A little, but now..." When he said this, his eyes looked at Delxiu again.

But this time, Lao Du's eyes were completely different from the previous ones that were so peaceful and almost lifeless. Instead, there was a light, a light that seemed to be contaminated by the sunshine and the majestic momentum in his words, which was unstoppable.

Yes, the compelling light.

At that moment, Delxiu seemed to see the torrent of history converging into three thousand brilliant cavalry, roaring towards him.

He subconsciously took a step back and opened his mouth, but not a word came out.

He was a little scared, just like the fear he felt when he first saw Galen kill forty people standing in front of him with a single sword, or maybe many times more.

"Now that I see you, I suddenly want to know whether it is Demacia's top soldiers or Noxus' top soldiers who are more powerful. Is it a crime other than war, or... God's will." The last word came out.

, Lao Du's whole body straightened up completely. He did not show any murderous intention or ferocity. He just made that seemingly insignificant action, but he no longer had the same characteristics as the old coachman before.

Those silences, the dead silence, the dead silence until death, he was like a perfect knife, unsheathed again.

"You..." Delxiu said one word, but did not say any more. Lao Du's identity was already revealed, but he did not need to say it. He only needed to know that there was a man who shone brighter than the stars who would lead him to the future.

eternal.

"Why?" Despite this, Delxiu still didn't believe the reason that sounded completely unconvincing.

"For..." Lao Du was suddenly stuck. He actually didn't know what he was doing. Both Annie and Chen Senran were missing. He was completely defeated many years ago, and it seems to be the same now. He needs to give himself one last chance.

Account.

Maybe Little Annie is in the Noxian military camp not far ahead, and Chen Senran is also there, and he is now leading these people to have a final fight.

No matter what the outcome was, no matter who died and who lived, he had to leave. He suddenly felt very tired. He thought maybe he would go and apologize to Hastur then, and then go see his daughter whom he hadn't seen for a long time.

He suddenly missed his daughter very much.

I'm so tired...I don't know what I'm writing...

Maybe I wrote what I wanted, maybe I didn't.
